Former Marilyn Manson keyboardist Madonna Wayne Gacy (who’s real name is Stephen Bier) hasn’t been in the band for a decade, but is attempting to keep himself relevant by making noise with a computer keyboard. A month ago, he wished suffering on his former singer, and he’s also called out Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell for committing suicide. More recently, he’s taken aim at another suicide victim, Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain.

In a since-deleted Facebook post, Gacy accused the late singer of ripping off Blue Oyster Cult’s “Godzilla” for “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and Killing Joke’s “Eighties” for “Come As You Are.” The post said “Burn in hell, Kurt,” and also “And this is why you kill yourself, because you’re a f******* thief.” Granted, Kurt isn’t around to answer, and this is perhaps something Gacy should’ve brought up in 1991, after Nevermind was released. We don’t see it with “Godzilla,” but he certainly has a point with the Killing Joke track.  Meanwhile, if you’re wondering what else Gacy has been up to, apparently, he’s been trying to make a living by selling Manson memorabilia online, so things seem to be working out just great for him.
